Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
So any activity where I have more than one and a half metabolic equivalents like like there's a landmark research that when the Wii came out remember that that that PlayStation the Wii >> and they were like we fit and it turns out playing Wii burned as many calories as standing right it wasn't the Wii it was the now we're not sitting and playing. So it if we were at a bar stool working that's still I can focus but now I have to do a lot more with my trunk and now I'm above one and a half metabolic equivalence.
